The Beg for Manuals thread is over 500 pages long? I looked at ten pages before my eyes started bleeding.
Anyone have a FSM or IPL or EPV for a Stihl 039 they can share.
I picked up the 039, a 021 and a 019T for ten bucks each. The 039 lacks a sidecover (B&C) right this minute, but pulling the starter handle appears to have plenty of compression. I have to clean it up and check for spark this afternoon, I'll clean the others too, a little bit. They need more parts. I may part them out, even though I am kinda not confident. I will send pics....
I really needed a bigger saw, the MS 270 worked, but I overworked it in the spring, and somehow a couple of bolt under the flywheel backed out and damaged the flywheel. I have ordered a new one, but it aint here yet. I am hoping I can just bolt in the new flywheel and it goes back to work. It handles 18" fine. But I wanted the bigger saw for the 20-30+"
Not a huge fan of hot rodding a working saw, but the 039 might get a muff mod and a little porting if it needs any P/C work, make sense?
